2. Create a frame with your wooden pieces, and nail them together. We recommend two nails at each joint.

7. Stick the hook side (aka the “hard” side) of your tape onto all four edges of your wooden frame.
8. Attach the paper to your frame.
9. Now, it’s time to add some window panes. Cut a piece of VELCRO® Brand Sticky Back White Tape that is 24 inches, and another that is 27 inches. Use a ruler to find the midpoint of your window, and attach your panes to create 4 window sections.
